did shop for some boat parts

In the morning we went to George Kniest marine shop to pick-up some parts like a Goiot escape hatch, a sink, a Origo 200A stove and a Henderson Inspection hatch for the holding tank.
In the afternoon I started with making some foam panels for both hatches. Further I looked were the sink and the stove had to come. I did not laminated because it was to cold, this weekend the temperature is going up again. This weekend is relative short for me because we have some social things tomorrow afternoon and I have to work on Sunday.

a little circus act

Today we taped the holding tank, this was a little circus act because I had to hang upside down to tape the underside of the holding tank, in the picture a was relatively high. When that was done I glued and tape the side of the tank in place. We than taped the ribs. In the morning I put some graphite putty on the the sliding rails and I put some battens with tape on it to make a smooth surface.
On the end we did some DD paint on the inside of the sliding hatch so this can be tape in place next time. This all with a pair extra appreciated hands of Fetske.

started with the holdingtank

My friend Rob did come assist me today with decision making. We started with the holding tank and it was very handy to have some extra hands. I glued the bottom in place while Rob did keep some distance because he is allergic of epoxy. After that was fixed my friend Reijer gave us a visit, with the three of use we decided were the breaker panel had to come. I now can also order that one.

 In the afternoon we started with the floor to make some ribs.While Rob was doing some ribs I started with the top of the sliding hatch to fit some draining holes. Before we did leave I glued the ribs and draining tubes in place.

started with the raised floor

In the morning the sleeping mattress for the front did arrive, maybe we trial fit it this weekend. The first job was to fill the small corner of the locker because the panel was a little short. In the afternoon I started with the edge to put the floor on. and taped the last panel on the outside of the locker.

laminated the after trampoline lasing tubes

In the morning I prepared the after trampoline lasing tubes and the locker panels. After lunch Fetske did came to assist with laminating the tubes. After that and a tea break Fetske did cut some carbon for the locker and I cut the corner panel to fit. For the last part I didn't need assistance so Fetske did leave.


Update after unpacking

laminated yesterdays panels in place

I started with unpacking and then clean the edges with the circle saw. I first glued the bottom in place and than the end panel on the bunk. I did this with fast epoxy. In the afternoon cut all the necessary pieces carbon and peel ply. The front panel was also cut, the corner of this panel the the other will be on a 45 degree angle with a smaller panel. After taping the bottom I did the end panel. As last I glued the front panel in place. This one can be taped tomorrow with the corner panel.

back in business

This is the first job for this year after a week with flu. I made some more panels, one for the locker in the front and on for the bottom of the kitchen locker. In the afternoon we laminated them so that I can glue them in place tomorrow. After laminating I drilled the holes for the dagger board control line blocks. I also did some work on the holding tank and I now know how to put it together still no pictures maybe tomorrow.
